  2. Um, there are few anonymous blogs out there that are being pushed by Reibman and McClure. For all I know, they are the authors. I don't hide who I support and who I don't. This blog is NOT anonymous and is doing its best to tell the truth.

    With respect to Callahan's proposed budget, I have seen some vicious disinformation by the anonymous assholes. I've even seen an idiotic defense of a billion dollar-endowed exempt organization that is sticking it to us all. I decided a response with facts was in order. That always helps and I am gratified by the many good responses I've received.

    Must bother the hell out of you.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
